social media beef

Lana Del Rey Responds To Lizzo Beef Rumors

by

In one of the oddest social media “beefs” of 2024, Lana Del Rey and Lizzo almost became enemies in the music space, and it was all due to a troll account. Per Complex, Twitter account Drop Pop posted alleged screenshots of the latter commenting on a TikTok video of the former on Wednesday (November 13). “I’d like to see you back on the charts,” the Special singer supposedly wrote, with the “Tough” artist replying with “I would love to see you run on a treadmill.” A lot of fans saw this and completely forgot some key details, namely that Drop Pop is a parody account. They eventually deleted the post, but they did follow it up with another fake screenshot: “I hope that alligator eats your big a**” versus “you’d know about eating biggie.”

Then, Lana Del Rey commented on an Instagram post about the fabricated Lizzo beef with some more clarifications. “I don’t think I have an official TikTok, other than the grants one sooooo,” “Or a Twitter,” and “Very random” were her responses. Of course, both are known to not really take social media criticism too seriously. The Detroit flautist recently laughed off jabs from Antonio Brown about Ozempic.

Lana Del Rey Dismisses Lizzo Beef Allegations

As for Lana Del Rey, this fake Lizzo beef might not even be the most bizarre crossover with an artist outside of her genre and aesthetics this year. Fans expressed shock when she threw it back with Sexyy Red at the Hangout Festival, which was definitely not what they expected to see on their feed. They both seemed to have a great time and be well-aware of how odd this link-up must look to people on the outside.

In any case, we’re glad that Lana Del Rey and Lizzo aren’t at odds and we just hope that people stop mixing up these parody accounts with more straightforward reporting. After all, the latter has enough smoke to deal with from South Park, although she took it in stride like she always does. Both artists also face strong fan demand to follow up on their last projects with their next moves, so we’ll see what the future holds.

Tyrese Calls Joe Budden Out For Disrespecting His Recent “Breakfast Club” Appearance

by

Tyrese may have “officially retired” from social media after a hot take about masculinity, but he’s still got gas in the tank. Moreover, he recently reacted to Joe Budden’s reaction to his recent appearance on The Breakfast Club, which Joe called “bitter.” Also, even though the rapper and podcaster shouted the actor and singer out as a friend of the show, he still recalled how he had a similar energy on the radio show last year. In fact, he brought up the last five years of Mr. Gibson’s divorce and relationship struggles. However, other co-hosts brought up that the divorce isn’t the only thing that he’s been emotional about, so it might be unfair to point to that split as a reason for this perceived “bitterness.”

In fact, Budden even said that being bitter isn’t a bad thing: just an observation that they’re making. Nevertheless, Tyrese pointed out how his previous appearance on (or link-up with) The Joe Budden Podcast saw its titular host make fun of what the actor would say on The Breakfast Club that took on a more emotive or spiritual tone. While Tyrese pointed out the strong bond he has with Joe and with his co-host Melyssa Ford, he also thinks that whenever he does something with Charlamagne Tha God and company, Joe starts sending out strays his way.

Tyrese Blasts Joe Budden For “Bitter” Narrative

Furthermore, Tyrese also posited that there are people on The Joe Budden Podcast who are sticking up for him more than Joe himself, who was his friend in the first place. In addition, he said that there’s nothing Budden could say to prove that he’s bitter. Finally, the Fast & Furious star said that the Slaughterhouse MC can’t speak on anything that he’s going through because he never married and thus can’t relate to his relationship struggles.

Meanwhile, some of Tyrese’s other final social media acts before his break included blasting the Biden-Harris administration over an anti-Asian hate crime bill. “There is a crime bill that was signed into law that protects Asians at all costs,” he said on Instagram Live. “Where is that same f***ing law when it comes to Black and brown people? Because what you’re doing is — President Biden and Kamala Harris — what you’re doing is, you’re saying that Black and brown people will continue to be disposable. That s**t doesn’t make sense.”

Azealia Banks Randomly Eviscerates JT Over Her Music & Fashion

by

If you’re a big enough celebrity, then it’s almost guaranteed that Azealia Banks will either praise you or – as happens most often – drag you online. Moreover, she often goes on unprovoked rants about many superstars, which is completely fair and understandable when it’s just her unfiltered opinion. But the rapper can also puzzle her fans with her targets, and all this animosity for no reason hasn’t nurtured the healthiest online presence. Nevertheless, her latest target is JT, who faced a scathing rant from Banks on Twitter this week after she came across the Florida native’s remarks on Foxy Brown and her presence in fashion.

“[A TikTok about me] said, ‘We haven’t had a dark-skinned girl killing it in fashion since Foxy Brown,’” JT recalled during a recent interview with Essence. “It gave me the chills. It makes so much sense. It’s no shade to nobody else.” “JT… sis, you’re absolutely not killing it in fashion or music nor was foxy ever killing it in fashion,” Azealia Banks reacted. “Lil Kim is the alpha and the omega. And This boob job is the most unfashionable thing ever. Its f***ing horrible please undo it.

Azealia Banks’ Rant Against JT

“Plus quit with the dark skin s**t,” Azealia Banks went on concerning the former City Girl. “Like what the hell does that even mean anymore. Just because some gays are taking ur money to put you in neon green lipstick and blonde wigs doesn’t mean youre fashionable sis. the real fashion girls actually don’t see it for you, like at all. They think you look ‘heavy.’ Lol.” Perhaps we will never know if something else provoked this rant behind the scenes, but the most likely scenario is that she just woke up on the combative side of the bed and JT happened to be the target this time around.

Meanwhile, Azealia Banks doesn’t always just bash other celebrities. She also gives out her own stamp of approval, as she recently did by making her own remix of Tinashe’s “Nasty.” Sometimes this homage can come across as backhanded, but we can’t always assume that someone is hating. Hopefully we get more examples of admirable tributes instead of unprompted attacks.

Yung Miami & DJ Akademiks Shockingly Agree To A “Caresha Please” Interview

by

As social media has proved many times in the past, Yung Miami and DJ Akademiks don’t like each other very much. However, it seems like they might finally bury the hatchet… Or at least, they’re open to the possibility. “Let’s do Caresha please season 2 @Akademiks,” the former City Girl tweeted recently. “I would love a sit down from my POV. Everyone POV is very important!!” “I’m down,” the media personality responded, and you can see many of their fans warn against the meet-up in the replies to their posts below. However, we won’t be the ones to rally against a reconciliation if it all goes down in good faith.

After all, they know all the attention that they bring each other doesn’t have to be mutually exclusive as far as its benefits. Most recently in their saga, DJ Akademiks blasted Yung Miami for her current beef with another former Everyday Struggle cohost and hip-hop media leader. Caresha made fun of Joe Budden’s gold plaque for “Pump It Up” over twenty years after its release. We wonder whether the Slaughterhouse MC would also be down for an interview with her to settle their differences.

DJ Akademiks Is “Down” To Talk To Yung Miami

Elsewhere, Yung Miami’s last words for DJ Akademiks came in the form of some scathing bars against him on her “50/50 Freestyle.” “N***a d**k small, probably why his ball so pissy,” she raps on the cut. “Meat puller on your knees, how you standing on the business? / Akademiks, you a b***h, why you speaking on women? / Yeah, leave him alone / Mr. Pocket P***y, what you beating on? / You see this face? I ain’t one of them b***hes you can hang up on.”

Meanwhile, DJ Akademiks’ also recently clowned Yung Miami for her alleged involvement in the Diddy scandal and about how she got herself into a bad situation. As you can see, there’s a lot of history that these two could hold grudges over. But it seems like an honest conversation and a big engagement farm might tip the scales towards peace. We’ll see if this actually manifests, and what the nature of their interview would even look like… If it does go down, that is.

Cardi B Says Joe Budden Isn’t A Fan Of Hers During Twitter Rant: “Mouth Be Bigger Than They Pockets”

by

Cardi B has long been promising a sophomore LP to her Bardi Gang, and seeing how consistent she’s been with new singles in 2024, something tells us the rap diva might deliver this year. Her fans remain as loyal as ever to the black-haired beauty, but various bloggers in the music space have mixed feelings about Cardi after snagging a Grammy Award for Rap Album of The Year and then taking an extremely lengthy hiatus. Among the latter category is Joe Budden, who the New Yorker name-dropped during a rant on Twitter/X Spaces earlier this week.

“I’m always working, and I’m hungry,” Cardi declared. “Not even 2017, f**k 2017, I’m working like I’m in 2016 and I have something to prove. You ni**as is mad at that! This s**t ain’t luck ni**a, this is work ni**a. I don’t gotta pay s**t to be on nothing, I’d rather chart low just so I can know what my fans like, and whether they’re gonna react. Fortunately, I charted high, ‘cuz this what motherf**kers wanna hear!” the mother of two boasted of her “Enough (Miami)” song. “One b**ch, two b**ch, old b**ch, new b**ch. None of y’all b**ches not gonna do s**t! I can’t help that other people like that s**t. God gave it to me so I gotta pop it,” Cardi continued to hype herself up.

Cardi B Sends Out a Message to Her Haters

After promising that she’s “standing on business” in this era of her career, the former stripper said, “B**ches be talking, mouth be bigger than their pockets.” Cardi added, “I’m pretty, I’m litty, I’m running this city. I’m s**ting on b**ches in every department. There’s ni**as who haven’t even be liking my records for a whole year. Even Joe Budden – that ni**a hates me – even him said that this song was fire. Why would he lie to me? He don’t even f**king like me, he didn’t like my last record. How people that don’t even like me saying that this record’s fire?”

Elsewhere in Cardi B’s world, the Los Angeles Police Department has her feeling some type of way after a recent incident at a traffic stop. According to the femcee, she was forced to step outside “butt naked” as officers searched her car for three hours while accusing her of trafficking fentanyl. The incident reportedly took place because they failed to recognize her celebrity status at the time; read all about it at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Jay-Z & Beyonce Under Fire For “COWBOY CARTER” Rollout, Azealia Banks Shares Lengthy Rant

by

It’s no secret that power couple Jay-Z and Beyonce aren’t one of Azealia Banks’ favourite duos. Now that the latter is gearing up to unveil Act II of her RENAISSANCE album series, the “212” hitmaker is making it known that she’s not supporting Bey exploring genres outside her usual repertoire. “Wow, we didn’t even try to put even a little effort into a more artistic title?” Banks asked on her Instagram Story. “Sis, I live for Whiteyonce Donatella Bianca Bardot DOWN, but I’m kind of ashamed at how [you] switch from Baobab trees and Black Parade to this literal pick me stuff.”

The New Yorker then called the “Halo” artist out for previously supporting the embattled Dixie Chicks, “who would never do the same for [her].” According to Banks, Bey too often shares her “platform with White women who are so jealous of [her] but have such a long history of sabotaging other Black women’s careers.” In particular, the infamous social media troll is taking issue with the “White woman cosplay” we’ve seen the Houston native in lately, such as her platinum blonde hair and themed outfits.

Azealia Banks Shares Her Thoughts on Act II

As for Beyonce’s husband, Banks had a message for him too. “Ugh, I’m so saddened by Jay-Z and his over strategizing everything [Bey does] to the point where it’s clearly his influence and not the real Bianca Bardot… Someone tell Jay-Z his strategies are corny and Beyonce has better ideas… We would like to see her outside without him and his pound puppy dreadlocks breathing all over herrrrrrr.”

If you’re still curious to know more about Beyonce’s COWBOY CARTER, even after Azealia Banks’ loud hate train, the mother of three gave us a few interesting details via IG earlier this week. She didn’t unveil her list of collaborators yet, but Bey did promise that she has upcoming songs with fellow artists who have earned her deepest respects. Read all about that at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Meek Mill Trolls DJ Akademiks Over Podcast Offer, Ak Claps Back

by

Meek Mill and DJ Akademiks aren’t slowing down their beef at all. It seems like they will continue to flame each other online over literally anything. For example, you may remember that Ak offered the Philly MC a podcast deal. He had said that he wanted to enter that business. But in his latest clapback, Meek told the media personality that he’s a small fry, and that he shouldn’t bother. Clearly, this set something off in both of them. The result was some more lengthy and bitter Twitter rants on Sunday (March 17).

“I’m richer than everybody that deal with you lol,” Meek Mill told DJ Akademiks. “Not like a finance podcast deal thing lol I hang around all billionaires and I’m caked up. you streaming for your chair getting drunk. I’m changing laws and stopping major hood beefs and trying to uplift the culture! The hat you wear I might own I just don’t be saying nothing.” “Wait.. you’re stopping hood beefs … LMAOOO..” DJ Akademiks retorted to this message, and went on to call Meek out for his alleged hypocrisy. “N***a your freestyle 2 days ago u rapped ‘You n***as start spinning we spraying your car.. Turks and Caicos.. I got back and bought 3 new dracos.’ N***a you’re the biggest promoter of the s**t you claim you want to stop. You don’t reside in Philadelphia anymore.. you live in a high rise condo in Manhattan..

“U drove to Philly at 2 AM to act like you were ‘spinning’ or ‘looking for opps‘. ran into nobody. ran 3 red lights getting outta there and drove back home,” DJ Akademiks told Meek Mill. “lol.. brother.. why did you do that? You Don’t think tweeting that you got a million put to to the side to wipe a street n***a family off the map is inciting street beef?? U dont think acting like ur driving around philly at 2 am w/ ur check engine light on ready to spin is inciting street beefs? You Don’t think you being a millionaire but taunting ppl who have no choice to be in the hood is fueling street beefs?

“U dont think blocking opportunities from upcoming rappers who have no outlet but drugs and violence is inciting street beefs?” he concluded. “You dont think tweeting you’re down to ‘DIE’ over a situation you reacted to poorly is inciting street beefs? U Don’t think saying You’ll pull up to n***as houses, piss on their steps and shoot music videos infront of their houses is inciting beefs? You can’t keep talking out both sides of your face. Activist or Killer. We’ve been wanting to know. Oh and I got screenshots incase you thought your post and delete was forgotten.

50 Cent & Young Buck Go Back & Forth Over Sexuality Claims

by

50 Cent is a merciless trolling opponent, and even past members of his G-Unit crew aren’t safe from his wrath. Moreover, you may know that he has an active beef with Young Buck, one that began in the late 2000s by falling out over Buck’s financial struggles. Specifically, he claimed that his label boss has a grudge against him after forcibly selling the rights to his music due to bankruptcy. No matter where their spat stands now, they’ve brought in other jabs and accusations in the mix. For example, the business mogul posted a picture insinuating that Buck has been in same-sex relationships.

“Didn’t make sense when we was taking the pic, but it makes whole lot of sense now. [laughing emojis] That boy like them boys!” 50 Cent captioned a post on Thursday (March 14) with a picture whose on-screen caption read “That time Young Buck refused a pic with Caitlyn Jenner” with a picture of the two G-Unit members with a transgender woman. “Dam bro @50cent… if ya miss me just say dat…” Buck replied via his Instagram Story, reminding folks that he turns 43 today (Friday, March 15). “Tell a n***a happy birthday if you gone mention me.”

“Hey CUUUURTIS LOOK BRO… Dam if ya miss me just say dat…” Young Buck continued of 50 Cent, who previously accused him of being with a transgender man back in 2019. “Tell me HAPPY BIRTHDAY if you gone mention me!! PS. Don’t flag this post this time. Ya’ll know dude keep flagging my post… He miss his bro… Just wanna say HAPPY BIRTHDAY. Ya’ll @ him for me… He still got me blocked.“

“It’s just like, you rich, my man,” Buck said of the Fif beef on Steve-O’s podcast earlier this year. “You still doing your thing. I love your TV show Power, you know what I mean? Why are you doing this to me?! Bruh, we was once brothers. I’ve always looked at you as big brother. Yes, I’ve made mistakes too but I’ve never done anything to try to take food out of your mouth or stop you from eating. To see how aggressive he is towards me makes me feel like, ‘Damn, are you trying to Ja Rule me, too?!” For more news and the latest updates on 50 Cent and Young Buck, stick around on HNHH.

DJ Akademiks Claims Meek Mill Sent Police To His House, Wants To Box Him

by

The social media feud between DJ Akademiks and Meek Mill continues, and it allegedly went beyond that online space. Moreover, the media personality recently claimed while on livestream that the Philly MC sent police to his house as a result of their beef. In addition, while kicking it with Adin Ross on his own livestream, Ak expressed wishes to box Meek, as he’s calling him these days. For those unaware, this started because of the latter’s implicit mention in the latest sexual assault lawsuit against Diddy, which the former commented on. It’s also worth noting that these two have clashed a lot in the past.

“And tweeting out like you on my a**?” DJ Akademiks said of Meek Mill while speaking to his audience. “Like, of course police are gonna come to my house! N***a, the f**k is you doing? Gimme one second. Yo, Meek got the police at my house, gang. Hold up.” Then, Ak walked away from his set-up to address the issue, and fans still debated whether this was true or just for show. Admittedly, it does seem a little extreme for something fake, as that could involve its own legal repercussions.

Did Tina Knowles Shade Janet Jackson? Beyonce’s Mom Responds To Accusations In New Video

by

The beauty of social media is that it allows humans to connect in constantly evolving, creative ways, no matter where they are in the world. Still, its detriment is how easily it can be used to stalk or keep tabs on people. Whether it be your latest crush or the celebrity you love to hate, the temptation is always there. The latest star to fall victim to the internet sleuths is Beyonce’s mother, Tina Knowles. She got caught liking a shady post targeted at Janet Jackson recently.

Users creeping through the Texas native’s likes saw that she seemingly agreed with another account unimpressed with Janet’s tour prices being similarly priced to her daughter’s. “You want Beyonce prices, have real production. Just disgusted. I’m not the only one… oh the DMs I’m getting. Way to thank your fans for years of support,” the message in question says. After hearing the internet’s theories about drama unfolding between Lawson and Jackson, the former got on Instagram to clear the air.

A post shared by Tina Knowles (@mstinaknowles)

“I am saddened by this. Janet Jackson is an icon and I would never question another artist. I took Destiny’s Child to see Janet when they were 15 years old,” Queen B’s mom wrote. “They always looked up to her and she opened doors for Beyonce. Why would I hate on her? I know now not to be in a rush and to be very careful. (I learned my lesson)! Especially when I have so much going on. I just wanted to clarify. I do know that you can see people’s likes so I would be pretty [foolish] to do that ❤❤.”

No matter what anyone has to say about her ticket prices or music, Janet Jackson continues to draw massive crowds decades deep into her career. Amid annual festival lineups hitting the internet, R&B lovers are enthused to see that the former child star is among those performing at Lovers & Friends this year.
